Ingredients
- 1 cup (softened) unsalted butter
- 1 cup (packed) light brown sugar
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup raisins
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer until the mixture is creamy and well combined, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
Step 6
Stir in the oats and raisins by hand using a wooden spoon or spatula until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly underdone. Do not overbake for soft cookies.
Step 9
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Enjoy your homemade oatmeal raisin cookies!
